A plan has the following preset views:

Each preset view comes with preconfigured settings; however, you can customize these settings to suit how you’d typically organize and view your work.

When you change any of these settings, the preset view will be in an edited state. You can then choose to save the changes you’ve made into the preset view itself, or save these as a new view.

Basic view

When you create a new plan, it will have the basic view, which has these settings:

  • Columns: Target start date, target end date, and status

  • Timeframe: 3 months

  • Hierarchy levels: Set from the highest to lowest hierarchy levels, per hierarchy configuration

  • Color by setting: Issues colored by status

  • Sort order: Issues sorted by ranking

Note that if your hierarchy configuration is set from initiative (highest) to sub-task (lowest), but your plan doesn't have any initiative issues in it, then you won't see initiative as an option in the hierarchy levels.

All issues in the plan are collapsed by default, and roll-up and group by settings are disabled. If you expand the issues, the view will move to an edited state, with the visual changes displaying in the view itself.

Sprint capacity management view

Use this view to focus on the allocation of sprint capacity across the issues in a plan. This lets you quickly see how best to plan work across your teams so sprint capacity is better optimized.

This view has the following settings:

  • Columns: Priority, sprint, estimate, release, and team

  • Timeframe: 3 months

  • Hierarchy level: Set to story level

  • Filter: Issues filtered by all future sprints

  • Group by setting: Issues grouped by teams, with capacity showing in the timeline

  • Color by setting: Issues colored by status

  • Sort order: Issues sorted by ranking

All issues in the plan are collapsed by default and roll-up settings are disabled. If you expand the issues, the view will be in an edited state, with the visual changes displaying in the view itself.

Top-level planning view

Use this view if you’re planning or viewing work from the highest to the lowest hierarchy level in a plan. This gives you a high-level view of how work is progressing, and lets you see issues in their hierarchical relationship with each other.

This view has the following settings:

  • Columns: Progress (issue count), target start date, target end date, release, and component

  • Timeframe: 1 year

  • Hierarchy level: Set from the highest level to story level, per hierarchy configuration

  • Group by setting: Issues grouped by projects

  • Color by setting: Issues colored by teams

  • Sort order: Issues sorted by ranking

Note that if your hierarchy configuration is set from initiative (highest) to sub-task (lowest), but your plan doesn't have any initiative issues in it, then you won't see initiative as an option in the hierarchy levels.

All issues in the plan are collapsed by default and roll-up settings are disabled. If you expand the issues, the view will be in an edited state, with the visual changes displaying in the view itself.

Dependency management view

Use this view to focus on only issues that have dependencies in a plan. This lets you quickly see which issues are blocking the progress of other issues so you can act on and unblock these dependencies.

This view has the following settings:

  • Columns: Dependencies, priority, target start date, target end date, team

  • Timeframe: 1 year

  • Hierarchy level: Set from epic level to sub-task level

  • Filter: Filtered by issues with dependencies

  • Color by setting: Issues colored by status

  • Sort order: Issues sorted by ranking

All issues in the plan are collapsed by default and roll-up settings are disabled. If you expand the issues, the view will be in an edited state, with the visual changes displaying in the view itself.
